Canoe Country Cream Ale
Northgate Brewing

This beer pours a hazy dark orange color. The head is a solid inch in height, and recedes slowly leaving nice lacing. The aroma is of very light for the style. There are some floral hops things going on and a little malt backing, but it is super light. The taste is more pronounced, and quite fruity. There is a strong perceived sweetness that lingers a while too, and I don't really care for that. There is also a wee hint of diacytl present as the beer warms. The mouthfeel is appropriately light bodied, but the carbonation is a bit too low for the style. Overall, this is a very lack luster beer. I can't see myself drinking it again.

 

Pours a rich, vibrant amber colour. Smells light, crisp, slightly sweet and malty, cereal malts, faint bitter hops, and earthiness. Tastes light, crisp, slightly bitter hops, and pale malts. A clean golden ale/cream ale taste, great it's simplicity.
